The girls started at school last week, and Ben started daycare this week. It's been a lot more coordination and planning for us, but overall, it's been going great!
Back to school 2020
Maggie started 2nd grade, and is in a classroom of 18. Her teacher is amazing and I'm really excited for her! She is thrilled to be back with her best buddies again.
First day of second grade!
All the confidence
Living her best life
Evie started kindergarten this year - it was so weird to not walk her to her room. I had to leave her with the other kids outside, but it actually went really well. She acted shy, but no tears and she did not seem scared. She is thriving and has so much to talk about after school. In the car ride home, she often raises her hand and gets mad at me when I don't notice it!
First day of kindergarten!
Let's do this!
Evie lost her first tooth on the first day of kindergarten - Maggie did the exact same thing in kindergarten, so weird! She was terrified of losing it, thinking it would hurt. It fell out in her mask at recess, a perfect experience!
Kind of a big deal
I'm so impressed with our girls. They never complain about their masks and they don't have any trouble following all the distancing rules at school. They can have their masks off in the classroom, but they wear them everywhere else. Jamie sewed them each a bunch of really cute masks which was very sweet.

Daddy hard at work
As expected, Ben really struggled his first few days at daycare. Jamie is back to work full-time and so am I, so we are sending him five days a week. They said he does pretty well during the day, and by the third day he seemed comfortable and happy during the day. This is not how he acts at drop off, but I think he will be ok soon. I think he might be shy about eating while he's there, because when he gets home each afternoon, he runs to his high chair and grabs his bib for me to put on... then he eats ALL the food!
Nom nom nom
Pleased as punch at Grandma's
Jamie and I celebrated 10 years of marriage a couple weeks ago! We were planning a trip to Spain and France, but obviously that plan was cancelled. Instead, Grandma and Grandpa took the kids for a couple days and we got some quality time together.
Cheers to 10 years!

Maggie slept in curlers and got some fancy hair
Evie opted for pink hair spray
We went to our first in-person mass last weekend. We've been holding off because we figured Ben would be too difficult to keep in one spot... we were right. It went pretty well though, and it felt good to be there again, especially seeing the girls participate.
